Electrolysis is the process of breaking down an ionic substance using. The
broken down substance is called the
Ionic substances contain charged
particles called
The electrolyte also contains positive and negative ions.
During electrolysis, the negative ions travel to the positive electrode and
electrons. This process is called
The positive ions travel to the negative electrode and
electrons. This
process is called
In addition,
for at the negative electrode
and non-metals form at the positive electrode.
